Hello and Welcome to Bonfiglio Design + Build, where craftsmanship and materiality converge seamlessly with innovation in Architecture.
With over two decades of experience in architecture and construction, Alvaro Bonfiglio develops each project based on a narrative that intertwines the needs and desires of the owner, with the possibilities of the site (genius loci), and the spirit of our times (zeitgeist).
Materiality and Craftsmanship:
Bonfiglio Design Build is renowned for our use of materials and our emphasis on craftsmanship. We often incorporate traditional materials in innovative ways, celebrating the tactile and aesthetic qualities of materials like stone, glass, and wood (specially wood).
Integration of Modern and Historic Elements:
Bonfiglio has a unique ability to integrate modern interventions into historical contexts seamlessly. Our designs respect the existing fabric of a site while introducing contemporary elements that complement and enhance the overall environment.
Detail-Oriented Design:
Bonfiglio's designs are celebrated for their intricate detailing. We pay careful attention to every aspect of a project, from the overall layout down to the smallest details like door handles and light fixtures.
Spatial Sensitivity:
Bonfiglio has a keen sensitivity to spatial relationships. Our designs often play with light and shadow, creating dynamic and engaging spatial experiences.
Classical Elements:
Earth, Water, Air, and Fire are the basic elements of our work. We use them to enhance the sensory experience and create a unique sense of tranquility.
Influence of Japanese, German, and Latino Architecture:
We draw inspiration from the places that affected us, particularly in our use of materials, attention to craftsmanship, and the incorporation of elements like water and fire into our designs.
Join us in this architectural journey, where innovation, craftsmanship, and a profound respect for the essence of place converge to shape spaces that transcend utility and become expressions of timeless beauty.
